In SciPy, we were looking at huge files, much longer compilation
times, increased memory use, etc.  Maybe you can compare these factors
and see how it goes?  I don't know if it can be avoided, on principle,
since you basically have to generate separate functions for each type
combination, which makes things explode combinatorially.
